SetiQ tells me that in the last 14 days, I've averaged 15.1 WU/day.
I'd venture to say that that's a pretty stable estimate. I don't see any additions/losses forthcoming.
Hmmm.....when I was working at the store, I used to add service installs to certain systems (with permission, of course!).
Every so often, a few of these actually report back....some of these installs were made when 3.03 had just come out!!!
It's funny when all of a sudden some computer in Vancouver sends me a workunit. Furthest one of these systems has travelled is Croatia!
So....make that average 15.2 😀

My average since Jan 1 is inflated. I brought up another system during that time for my race against minendo. That system has since been taken down (the wife doesn't like computers on the dining table 🙁 ). Also, SETI interferes with The Sims, which my wife plays. She closes SETI before starting the game but sometimes (er, most of the time) "forgets" to restart it even though I put an icon on the desktop for her. So my average right now is about 8 to 12 per day.
Ok according to the numbers 186. (I don't know why it is that high). 😕
I liked the 177 but I don't think you guys are going to let me keep it. 😱
Apparently people think other people are low balling their numbers! (And I resemble that remark and take offense!) 😛
Now let me remind people what the purpose of these races is for!!
The purpose is for us to increase our production and crush the French!
And how do we do this? We RACE! 😀
To keep us racing at our most productive we need to have a close race that encourages us to make LOTS of WU!
In the past we have broken into teams and just went for the flat out crunch-athon!
This works when the teams are divided up very evenly. (Not easy to do)
One proposal to help balance the teams is the VolleyBall scoring. Each team tries to keep any other team from scoring
too many points and block by saving up a days to dump when the other teams think they have a chance.
(Might work, might not)
Still this requires that the teams be evenly balanced. (Remember: Not easy to do).
So to complicate matters how about this:
1) Each person estimates their maximum possible production for the race.
2) The teams are divided up based on this number. (Best interest to give a good estimate!).
3) Each day the total amout Crunched by a team is compaired against the team's estimate.
(ie if you go over it helps your teammates who didn't do so well). If the whole team goes over
they are limited to the Team Estimate.
4) Points are awarded by who is closest without going over. If all the teams go over, then the
point goes to the team with the highest score!
Ok it is starting to sound like a Nomic game.
The question is: How to make everyone estimate fairly and yet encourage over acheivement and keeping the scores
very very close?????????

ConfusedBW should be back tomorrow if not sooner. The way the reported averages are coming in, we will be lucky to hear from everybody by then. All of these ideas sound good. I believe there was a poll and more people seemed to opt for the race like you originally did them Eponymous. The last race (my big idea) was a real devil to keep up with. 🙁
So I take it Eponymous/Grant will be entered with 186. Or what? The averages are really screwed up lately with the bandwidth problem. I just looked and your 7 day average is 217. :Q You have the best insight as to your fair average as does everyone else. So let me have your best shot. 😉

Even with the loss of two machines at work, I'm fairly certain that I can continue to maintain 40 WUs/day; if not, I'll just have to go "find" some more machines. 😉

I'm getting 6 a day here.
smokeball, I think I am gonna have to go with the 7 day average on your page...
24/day
I went from about 10-11 workunits a day and added some dual PIII's for my race with teriba and jerboy....my daily totals have been hectic, ranging from 19 to 35...because the machines are hosted at a place that has a really crappy connection....so... anyways I think the only average I can use is a 7 day, I dont think I've had the assimilations for 14 days yet, definately havent had them since january 1st
